NASCAR's Stewart-Haas Racing Takes A Win At Phoenix...

Tony Stewart finally won another race this past weekend at  Phoenix International Raceway, not as the driver of the No. 14 Office Depot/Old Spice Chevrolet. But as the owner of Stewart/Haas Racing (SHR). Teammate Ryan Newman, the driver of the No. 39 Tornados Chevrolet Impala won his first race at the 1 mile oval, as part of Stewar/Haas Racing.

Tony Stewart finshed 23rd, falling even further back on the Sprint Cup Series points. The season started good for Stewart/Haas Racing, but it has deminished since then, Until now with the win at Phoenix International Raceway.

Taking a chance on a two tires pit stop, after a late caution, which extended the race to three more laps. Even after Jimmy Johnson and Kyle Busch leading the most laps. Newman took the lead from four-time Sprint Cup champion Jeff Gordon after Gordon spun his tires at the restart, and that's all she wrote.

This was Newman’s 14th career Sprint Cup victory and his first win since the 50th running of the Daytona 500 in 2008, which Newman won. That is a span of 77 races.

Tony Stewart drove his #14 Office Depot/Old Spice Chevrolet  from 11th place to the lead by lap 23, but only held it for 15 laps around the desert mile. Track conditions changed and that took the air out of Stewart's sail. As night fell, the handling went away on Tony Stewarts' #14 Office Depot/Old Spice Chevrolet and left him with a 23rd place finish.

Newman held off the four-time Sprint Cup Champion Jeff Gordon for a .130 seconds to take the win, followed by Jimmi Johnson, Mark Martin and Juan Pablo Montoya. Matt Kenseth, Carl Edwards, Kyle Busch, Clint Bowyer and Joey Logano completed the 10.

With just 7 or 36 races completed, Stewart is ninth in the standings, down one spot. Newman moved up six position to 16th.

Next on schedule is the Samsung Mobile 500 to be held at Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth. Let's go Smoke 'em Tony.

NASCAR Sprint Cup Racing - Going Wingless

Tony Stewart

We all knew that it was not going to take long for the NASCAR Association, are what ever title they give themselves, to change back to the rear spoiler. It was not just the wing that made the cars go airborne, look at the rear of the cars, high ends lets air get in there as well. The only good thing that NASCAR has came up with was the Roof Flaps and of course all the safety devices, especially the Haans device for the neck support.

We all are eager to see the new spoiler on the cars and how they will run on each track. But we all also await a good accident with no injuries of course. The bump and draft is back as well so when it comes to wide open racing the action will begin and the test of the new spoiler will be revealed as to how good it is. Every season, NASCAR officials and CEO's come up with some different rule for that season to see how it works on the tracks and how the drivers like them and will adhear to them. When they took the Bump and Draft away, no one could run up on anyone without making some kind of contact. Now is real racing, time put tighten up those straps, get your last drink before going out on the track and HOLD ON, because you are going for a ride.

The Fueds In NASCAR, When Will It End...

Where did it all start between Kyle Edwards driver of the #99 Aflac Ford Fusion and Brad Keselowski driver of #12 Mopar FLOTV Dodge Charger. Some say it started back at the Aarons 499 Talladega Super speedway when Brad Keselowski moved to the inside when Edwards went high to block him in the final 400 yards of the 188-lap race. Edwards slid back down the track in another attempt to block, but Keselowski already was inside his left-rear quarter panel. Contact between the cars turned Edwards and lifted his rear tires off the pavement. Edwards flew into the path of third-place finisher Ryan Newman’s Chevrolet, and that collision launched Edwards into the fence, Ryan Newman’s wrecked car crossed the finish line 3rd.
It appears that Edwards has crossed the line, and even seemed to realize it after the crash went wrong, during Edwards interview, he was brief in the comments he made to the media, he told NASCAR officials that he got into Keselowski on purpose, but he did not intend to send him flying on the frontstretch into the safety barrier wall on his roof, coming back on all four tires to the inside lane crossing back across traffic coming to rest against the safety barrier wall.
Even after Edwards being 150 laps down at the time of the incident and Keselowski was running a top-five finish.


The retaliation from the Talladega with Keselowski having turned Edwards and sent his car airborne and into the catchfence at Talladega Superspeedway last spring as they both raced for a win. The two drivers started to get together earlier during Sundays Atlanta race when they bumped each other on Lap 41 shoving Edwards into the #20 Home Depot Toyota of Joey Logano, sending both cars to the garage.
But Robin Pemberton, vice president of competition for NASCAR, said the governing body would take its time in examining all the facts before deciding what to do with Edwards, whose No. 99 Roush Fenway Ford was ordered to the garage after wrecking the No. 12 of Keselowski

Another Top-Ten Finish For Stewart...

Now that Tony Stewart had gotten his second top-10 finish with completing the Shelby American NASCAR Sprint Cup Series with a strong seventh place at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Tony Stewart’s No. 14 Old Spice/Office Depot racing for Stewart-Haas Racing (SHR) led twice for a total of 7 laps out of the 267 lap race, and that was the only time we heard about Tony Stewart at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Expecting for Tony to come out and take charge of a speedway. Tony stated “We ended up seventh, which is alright, but we always want more”. Considering a ninth finish last Sunday at Fontana, California. Tony Stewart struggled on the restarts and it took a couple of laps to get in with the lead pack.


Tony felt that the No. 14 Old Spice/Office Depot Stewart-Haas Racing Chevrolet Impala was tight in the center of the track’s corners and loose on exit, at times Stewart was at pace with the leader, if not faster. But was not able to catch the leader.

During the quick work of the Old Spice/Office Depot pit crew, with adjusting the chassis, a series of wedge, track bar and tire pressure adjustments, Tony was able to crack a top-five after 90 laps at the 1.5 mile oval. But Stewart was not able to hold a top-five, by lap 108 he fell back to seventh, a spot he would hold for much of the race. Stewart stayed out on two green flags when other teams had to make scheduled pit stops. Tony lead on laps 164-165 and laps 215-219 before he was called in to make his requisite pit stops.
Stewart was holding the fifth-place when a final caution came out on lap 230. Only 11 other drivers were on the lead lap and the call was made to come in for four tires and a splash of gas. Stewart came in on fifth place and came out of pit row, yep you guessed it, seventh for the final 33 laps of the race. But since Stewart having problems with restarts, at the final green flag to the finish, he struggled to get the Old Spice/Office Depot dropped back to ninth in just one lap. Stewart tried using the remainder of the laps to get back what he lost, to get back to at least seventh or a top-10 finish.

Stewart’s SHR teammate, Ryan Newman, finished 18th in his No. 39 Tornados Chevrolet.

Bad Start On NASCAR's First Race For Tony...

After completing the 52nd running of the Daytona 500, Tony finished 22nd. During the whole race Tony was fighting with a tight car, the #14 Office Depot/Old Spice team could not figure out what else they can do to make the car run better, but ran out of time, even with the extended 8 laps due to the yellow flags.

Having ran so good on the Nationwide Series with a win, finishing second at the Gatorade Duel and a 9th place at the Budweiser Shoot out. With all that going for Tony, he and his team just could not tune the #14 Office Depot/Old Spice car to run for a better position.
“It wasn’t very good for us,” said Stewart of his Daytona 500 outing. “We just missed. I’m not sure what we missed, but we’ll figure it out.”

The track did not cooperate any with a chunk of the asphalt came out on turn two, not once, but twice. Bringing out two red flags for a total about of 145 minutes. With all that time, Tony's crew still could not come up with the right decission to make the car handle better. Once the Daytona crews finished with making the patches at turn two, it was a sprint to the finish line. Everyone was runing wide open, sliding, bumping, and not getting loose.

Ryan Newam, Stewarts teammate, got caught up in a accident in lap 194. Newman's car was immobile after the accident, finishing in 34th place.

With 1 of 36 races completed,Tony leaves Daytona 23rd in the championship standings, just 93 points behind McMurray. Newman is 34th in points.

Race 2 of 36 will be held at Fontana Speedway, let's see if Tony has gotten his #14 Office Depot/Old Spice car tuned up for that race.

TONY STEWART LAPTOP SKIN®

Nationwide Series Dominated by Tony Stewart...

For the Third time Tony Stewart has won the season-opener of the Nationwide Series. Tony has dominated for the last three years. Tony Stewart drove the #4 Oreo/Ritz Chevrolet Impala for Kevin Harvick Inc., it's his fifth win in the last six years. Tony has fifteen overall victories at Daytona and nine career Nationwide Series win. Tony led for 38 laps of the 120 lap race. He was really loose at the beginning and it worked out to his favor working his way to the top 10.

Tony started the race in the 32nd position of 43. Working his way through positions between pit stops and yellows, the #4 crew finally tweeked the car just to where Tony liked it and was able to come up to the front and hold on to the lead. Tony really did not have any challangers for the lead position. There were a couple laps that came close for Tony to hold the lead, but no one was able to pass or come close to his rear bumper.



Tony was placed in an elite company with his 15th win at Daytona, he joins Cale Yarborough in third-place. Dale Earnhardt Sr., and Bobby Allison have won more races at Daytona than Stewart. Tony is happy with all those wins at Daytona, but he still has not won the main one at Daytona, the NASCAR Sprint Cup opener.

Kraft Set To Go Racing With Stewart-Haas Racing

Kraft has added another chapter to their illustrious motor sports career by joining Stewart-Haas Racing. Kraft Foods’ iconic Oreo cookie and Ritz cracker brands will be part of the Stewart-Haas Racing team, as the team’s official cookie and cracker. Tony Stewart will carry the Ritz branding on the upper chest of his uniform and on the B-post (The break between the Doors and the quarter window) of his No. 14 Office Depot/Old Spice Chevrolet Impala, teammate Ryan Newman will carry the Oreo branding on the upper chest of his uniform and also on the B-post of his No. 39 U.S. Army/Tornado/Haas Automation Chevrolet Impala.

Kraft Foods will continue to be an official NASCAR sponsor with Oreo keeping its role as the official cookie of NASCAR and Ritz will remain the official cracker of NASCAR.

“Oreo and Ritz have a long, rich heritage with NASCAR and are pleased to announce the renewal of our NASCAR sponsorship,” said Michael Tilley, category manager consumer and customer engagement for Kraft Foods. “NASCAR has been a terrific partner, helping Kraft connect with its many passionate fans across the country. We’re privileged to be a sponsor. This year, we’re thrilled to be a part of Stewart-Haas Racing and looking forward to what will be an exciting season.”

“Kraft Foods has been in the NASCAR scene since 2000, and thanks to the strong marketing programs of brands familiar to millions of fans such as Oreo and Ritz, they’ve helped our sport grow,” said Jim O’Connell, vice president of corporate marketing and international development, NASCAR. “Kraft Foods’ latest endeavor with Tony Stewart and Stewart-Haas Racing complements the company’s overall NASCAR involvement, and it’s a testament to the strength of the sport.”



In its inaugural year of operation in 2009, Stewart-Haas Racing showed that it was new in name only. Tony Stewart and Ryan Newman combined to win four races – five with the non-point NASCAR Sprint All-Star Race at Charlotte (N.C.) Motor Speedway – along with two poles, 14 top-threes, 20 top-fives, 38 top-10s and a total of 628 laps led. They each earned a spot at the coveted berth of the elite Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup, and after finishing the year sixth and ninth, respectively, they earned another distinction with the duo being tied for having completed the most laps of all Sprint Cup drivers, as they each finished 99.8 percent of the 10,492 laps available, missing only 24 laps.

“We had a great first season on the racetrack that has helped us off the track in preparation for our second year,” Stewart said. “We’re proud to have Oreo and Ritz on our racecars and grateful for Kraft Foods’ support of Stewart-Haas Racing. As good as last year was, we want to be even better this year, and we’re glad Kraft Foods will be along for the ride.”

Kraft will get an early start at Daytona when Tony Stewart will drive the No. 4 Oreo/Ritz Chevrolet Impala in the Feb. 13 Camping World 300 Nationwide Series race. “We’ve had a lot of success in Daytona,” said Stewart, who has 14 career victories at Daytona. “It’s the only Nationwide Series race on my schedule this year, and I’d like nothing better than to go undefeated and bring Oreo and Ritz a win right of out of the box.”
